University of Westminster: Revised Access Agreement, 2008February 14th, 2008
FiledFebruary 14th, 2008Our Access Agreement confirms and underpins the traditional mission of Westminster to promote educational, social and sporting opportunities for students from diverse academic, social and cultural backgrounds. Westminster is the foremost London institution for widening access, with over 96% of students progressing from state education. Westminster’s commitment to these principles began, in earnest, with the opening of Quintin Hogg’s Polytechnic in Regent Street in 1881, building on the earlier foundation of the pioneering Royal Polytechnic Institution in 1838, and leading to the development of the polytechnic movement across the country.
